Fig. 3From: 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography [18F-FDG PET CT] in assessment of patients with vocal cord paralysis [VCP] secondary to extra laryngeal neoplastic causes: How is it reliable?A 60-year-old male patient presented with right neck swelling and hoarseness of voice. Axial CT [B], axial fused PET CT [C] and coronal fused PET CT [D] revealed amalgamated confluent FDG avid nodal mass lesions [levels III, IV, Vb and VII] with loss of physiological uptake of the right vocal cord [yellow arrow; C and D] achieving up to 25 SUV max. (A) MIP image revealed the enlarged amalgamated right deep cervical FDG avid nodal mass lesions [black thick arrow]. The lymphomatous lesions were pathologically proven to be non-Hodgkin’s lymphomaBack to article page
